2012-10-09mm: kill vma flag VM_EXECUTABLE and mm->num_exe_file_vmasKonstantin Khlebnikov
Currently the kernel sets mm->exe_file during sys_execve() and then tracks number of vmas with VM_EXECUTABLE flag in mm->num_exe_file_vmas, as soon as this counter drops to zero kernel resets mm->exe_file to NULL. Plus it resets mm->exe_file at last mmput() when mm->mm_users drops to zero. VMA with VM_EXECUTABLE flag appears after mapping file with flag MAP_EXECUTABLE, such vmas can appears only at sys_execve() or after vma splitting, because sys_mmap ignores this flag. Usually binfmt module sets mm->exe_file and mmaps executable vmas with this file, they hold mm->exe_file while task is running. comment from v2.6.25-6245-g925d1c4 ("procfs task exe symlink"), where all this stuff was introduced: > The kernel implements readlink of /proc/pid/exe by getting the file from > the first executable VMA. Then the path to the file is reconstructed and > reported as the result. > > Because of the VMA walk the code is slightly different on nommu systems. > This patch avoids separate /proc/pid/exe code on nommu systems. Instead of > walking the VMAs to find the first executable file-backed VMA we store a > reference to the exec'd file in the mm_struct. > > That reference would prevent the filesystem holding the executable file > from being unmounted even after unmapping the VMAs. So we track the number > of VM_EXECUTABLE VMAs and drop the new reference when the last one is > unmapped. This avoids pinning the mounted filesystem. exe_file's vma accounting is hooked into every file mmap/unmmap and vma split/merge just to fix some hypothetical pinning fs from umounting by mm, which already unmapped all its executable files, but still alive. Seems like currently nobody depends on this behaviour. We can try to remove this logic and keep mm->exe_file until final mmput(). mm->exe_file is still protected with mm->mmap_sem, because we want to change it via new sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_EXE_FILE). Also via this syscall task can change its mm->exe_file and unpin mountpoint explicitly.

2012-10-09mm: use mm->exe_file instead of first VM_EXECUTABLE vma->vm_fileKonstantin Khlebnikov
Some security modules and oprofile still uses VM_EXECUTABLE for retrieving a task's executable file. After this patch they will use mm->exe_file directly. mm->exe_file is protected with mm->mmap_sem, so locking stays the same.

2012-10-09mm: kill vma flag VM_CAN_NONLINEARKonstantin Khlebnikov
Move actual pte filling for non-linear file mappings into the new special vma operation: ->remap_pages(). Filesystems must implement this method to get non-linear mapping support, if it uses filemap_fault() then generic_file_remap_pages() can be used. Now device drivers can implement this method and obtain nonlinear vma support.

2012-10-09mm: kill vma flag VM_INSERTPAGEKonstantin Khlebnikov
Merge VM_INSERTPAGE into VM_MIXEDMAP. VM_MIXEDMAP VMA can mix pure-pfn ptes, special ptes and normal ptes. Now copy_page_range() always copies VM_MIXEDMAP VMA on fork like VM_PFNMAP. If driver populates whole VMA at mmap() it probably not expects page-faults. This patch removes special check from vma_wants_writenotify() which disables pages write tracking for VMA populated via vm_instert_page(). BDI below mapped file should not use dirty-accounting, moreover do_wp_page() can handle this. vm_insert_page() still marks vma after first usage. Usually it is called from f_op->mmap() handler under mm->mmap_sem write-lock, so it able to change vma->vm_flags. Caller must set VM_MIXEDMAP at mmap time if it wants to call this function from other places, for example from page-fault handler.

Replace the generic vma-flag VM_PFN_AT_MMAP with x86-only VM_PAT. We can toss mapping address from remap_pfn_range() into track_pfn_vma_new(), and collect all PAT-related logic together in arch/x86/.

2012-10-09x86, pat: separate the pfn attribute tracking for remap_pfn_range and ↵Suresh Siddha
vm_insert_pfn With PAT enabled, vm_insert_pfn() looks up the existing pfn memory attribute and uses it. Expectation is that the driver reserves the memory attributes for the pfn before calling vm_insert_pfn(). remap_pfn_range() (when called for the whole vma) will setup a new attribute (based on the prot argument) for the specified pfn range. This addresses the legacy usage which typically calls remap_pfn_range() with a desired memory attribute. For ranges smaller than the vma size (which is typically not the case), remap_pfn_range() will use the existing memory attribute for the pfn range. Expose two different API's for these different behaviors. track_pfn_insert() for tracking the pfn attribute set by vm_insert_pfn() and track_pfn_remap() for the remap_pfn_range(). This cleanup also prepares the ground for the track/untrack pfn vma routines to take over the ownership of setting PAT specific vm_flag in the 'vma'.

'pfn' argument for track_pfn_vma_new() can be used for reserving the attribute for the pfn range. No need to depend on 'vm_pgoff' Similarly, untrack_pfn_vma() can depend on the 'pfn' argument if it is non-zero or can use follow_phys() to get the starting value of the pfn range. Also the non zero 'size' argument can be used instead of recomputing it from vma.

When transparent huge pages were introduced, memory compaction and swap storms were an issue, and the kernel had to be careful to not make THP allocations cause pageout or compaction. Now that we have working compaction deferral, kswapd is smart enough to invoke compaction and the quadratic behaviour around isolate_free_pages has been fixed, it should be safe to remove __GFP_NO_KSWAPD.

2012-10-09CPU hotplug, debug: detect imbalance between get_online_cpus() and ↵Srivatsa S. Bhat
put_online_cpus() The synchronization between CPU hotplug readers and writers is achieved by means of refcounting, safeguarded by the cpu_hotplug.lock. get_online_cpus() increments the refcount, whereas put_online_cpus() decrements it. If we ever hit an imbalance between the two, we end up compromising the guarantees of the hotplug synchronization i.e, for example, an extra call to put_online_cpus() can end up allowing a hotplug reader to execute concurrently with a hotplug writer. So, add a WARN_ON() in put_online_cpus() to detect such cases where the refcount can go negative, and also attempt to fix it up, so that we can continue to run. Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai: "This contains pretty many small commits covering fairly large range of files in sound/ directory. Partly because of additional API support and partly because of constantly developed ASoC and ARM stuff. Some highlights: - Introduced the helper function and documentation for exposing the channel map via control API, as discussed in Plumbers; most of PCI drivers are covered, will follow more drivers later - Most of drivers have been replaced with the new PM callbacks (if the bus is supported) - HD-audio controller got the support of runtime PM and the support of D3 clock-stop. Also changing the power_save option in sysfs kicks off immediately to enable / disable the power-save mode. - Another significant code change in HD-audio is the rewrite of firmware loading code. Other than that, most of changes in HD-audio are continued cleanups and standardization for the generic auto parser and bug fixes (HBR, device-specific fixups), in addition to the support of channel-map API. - Addition of ASoC bindings for the compressed API, used by the mid-x86 drivers. - Lots of cleanups and API refreshes for ASoC codec drivers and DaVinci. - Conversion of OMAP to dmaengine. - New machine driver for Wolfson Microelectronics Bells. - New CODEC driver for Wolfson Microelectronics WM0010. - Enhancements to the ux500 and wm2000 drivers - A new driver for DA9055 and the support for regulator bypass mode."

The only complication is that we should clear ->group_exit_task and ->notify_count before we return, and we should do this under tasklist_lock. -EAGAIN is used to match the initial signal_group_exit() check/return, it doesn't really matter. This fixes the (unlikely) race with coredump. de_thread() checks signal_group_exit() before it starts to kill the subthreads, but this can't help if another CLONE_VM (but non CLONE_THREAD) task starts the coredumping after de_thread() unlocks ->siglock. In this case the killed sub-thread can block in exit_mm() waiting for coredump_finish(), execing thread waits for that sub-thead, and the coredumping thread waits for execing thread. Deadlock.

2012-10-08arm64: Enable interrupts before calling do_notify_resume()Catalin Marinas
task_work_run() implementation had the side effect of enabling interrupts. With commit ac3d0da8 (task_work: Make task_work_add() lockless), interrupts are no longer enabled revealing the bug in the arch code. This patch enables the interrupt explicitly before calling do_notify_resume(). Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

2012-10-08arm64: Call swiotlb_init() instead of swiotlb_init_with_default_size()Catalin Marinas
Following commit 74838b7 (swiotlb: add the late swiotlb initialization function with iotlb memory) the swiotlb_init_with_default_size() is a static function. This patch changes the arm64 code to call swiotlb_init() instead and use the default size of 64MB. It is assumed that AArch64 platforms have enough RAM to afford the pre-allocated swiotlb memory. It also removes the #ifdef around this call since CONFIG_SWIOTLB is always enabled. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

Pull UBI fastmap changes from Artem Bityutskiy: "This pull request contains the UBI fastmap support implemented by Richard Weinberger from Linutronix. Fastmap is designed to address UBI's slow scanning issues. Namely, it introduces a new on-flash data-structure called "fastmap", which stores the information about logical<->physical eraseblocks mappings. So now to get this information just read the fastmap, instead of doing full scan. More information here can be found in Richard's announcement in LKML (Subject: UBI: Fastmap request for inclusion (v19)): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1364922/focus=1369109 One thing I want to explicitly say is that fastmap did not have large enough linux-next exposure. It is partially my fault - I did not respond quickly enough. I _really_ apologize for this. But it had good testing and disabled by default, so I do not expect that we'll break anything. Fastmap is declared as experimental so far, and it is off by default. We did declare that the on-flash format may be changed. The reason for this is that no one used it in real production so far, so there is a high risk that something is missing. Besides, we do not have user-space tools supporting fastmap so far. Nevertheless, I suggest we merge this feature. Many people want UBI's scanning bottleneck to be fixed and merging fastmap now should accelerate its production use. The plan is to make it bullet-prove, somewhat clean-up, and make it the default for UBI. I do not know how many kernel releases will it take. Basically, I what I want to do for fastmap is something like Linus did for btrfs few years ago." * tag 'upstream-3.7-rc1-fastmap' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-ubi: UBI: Wire-up fastmap UBI: Add fastmap core UBI: Add fastmap support to the WL sub-system UBI: Add fastmap stuff to attach.c UBI: Wire-up ->fm_sem UBI: Add fastmap bits to build.c UBI: Add self_check_eba() UBI: Export next_sqnum() UBI: Add fastmap stuff to ubi.h UBI: Add fastmap on-flash data structures

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab: "The first part of the media updates for Kernel 3.7. This series contain: - A major tree renaming patch series: now, drivers are organized internally by their used bus, instead of by V4L2 and/or DVB API, providing a cleaner driver location for hybrid drivers that implement both APIs, and allowing to cleanup the Kconfig items and make them more intuitive for the end user; - Media Kernel developers are typically very lazy with their duties of keeping the MAINTAINERS entries for their drivers updated. As now the tree is more organized, we're doing an effort to add/update those entries for the drivers that aren't currently orphan; - Several DVB USB drivers got moved to a new DVB USB v2 core; the new core fixes several bugs (as the existing one that got bitroted). Now, suspend/resume finally started to work fine (at least with some devices - we should expect more work with regards to it); - added multistream support for DVB-T2, and unified the API for DVB-S2 and ISDB-S. Backward binary support is preserved; - as usual, a few new drivers, some V4L2 core improvements and lots of drivers improvements and fixes. There are some points to notice on this series: 1) you should expect a trivial merge conflict on your tree, with the removal of Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt: this series would be adding two additional entries there. I opted to not rebase it due to this recent change; 2) With regards to the PCTV 520e udev-related breakage, I opted to fix it in a way that the patches can be backported to 3.5 even without your firmware fix patch. This way, Greg doesn't need to rush backporting your patch (as there are still the firmware cache and firmware path customization issues to be addressed there). I'll send later a patch (likely after the end of the merge window) reverting the rest of the DRX-K async firmware request, fully restoring its original behaviour to allow media drivers to initialize everything serialized as before for 3.7 and upper. 3) I'm planning to work on this weekend to test the DMABUF patches for V4L2. The patches are on my queue for several Kernel cycles, but, up to now, there is/was no way to test the series locally. I have some concerns about this particular changeset with regards to security issues, and with regards to the replacement of the old VIDIOC_OVERLAY ioctl's that is broken on modern systems, due to GPU drivers change. The Overlay API allows direct PCI2PCI transfers from a media capture card into the GPU framebuffer, but its API is crappy. Also, the only existing X11 driver that implements it requires a XV extension that is not available anymore on modern drivers. The DMABUF can do the same thing, but with it is promising to be a properly-designed API. If I can successfully test this series and be happy with it, I should be asking you to pull them next week." * 'v4l_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media: (717 commits) em28xx: regression fix: use DRX-K sync firmware requests on em28xx drxk: allow loading firmware synchrousnously em28xx: Make all em28xx extensions to be initialized asynchronously [media] tda18271: properly report read errors in tda18271_get_id [media] tda18271: delay IR & RF calibration until init() if delay_cal is set [media] MAINTAINERS: add Michael Krufky as tda827x maintainer [media] MAINTAINERS: add Michael Krufky as tda8290 maintainer [media] MAINTAINERS: add Michael Krufky as cxusb maintainer [media] MAINTAINERS: add Michael Krufky as lg2160 maintainer [media] MAINTAINERS: add Michael Krufky as lgdt3305 maintainer [media] MAINTAINERS: add Michael Krufky as mxl111sf maintainer [media] MAINTAINERS: add Michael Krufky as mxl5007t maintainer [media] MAINTAINERS: add Michael Krufky as tda18271 maintainer [media] s5p-tv: Report only multi-plane capabilities in vidioc_querycap [media] s5p-mfc: Fix misplaced return statement in s5p_mfc_suspend() [media] exynos-gsc: Add missing static storage class specifiers [media] exynos-gsc: Remove <linux/version.h> header file inclusion [media] s5p-fimc: Fix incorrect condition in fimc_lite_reqbufs() [media] s5p-tv: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference error [media] s5k6aa: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference ...

Pull UAPI disintegration fixes from David Howells: "There are three main parts: (1) I found I needed some more fixups in the wake of testing Arm64 (some asm/unistd.h files had weird guards that caused problems - mostly in arches for which I don't have a compiler) and some __KERNEL__ splitting needed to take place in Arm64. (2) I found that c6x was missing some __KERNEL__ guards in its asm/signal.h. Mark Salter pointed me at a tree with a patch to remove that file entirely and use the asm-generic variant instead. (3) Lastly, m68k turned out to have a header installation problem due to it lacking a kvm_para.h file. The conditional installation bits for linux/kvm_para.h, linux/kvm.h and linux/a.out.h weren't very well specified - and didn't work if an arch didn't have the asm/ version of that file, but there *was* an asm-generic/ version. It seems the "ifneq $((wildcard ...),)" for each of those three headers in include/kernel/Kbuild is invoked twice during header installation, and the second time it matches on the just installed asm-generic/kvm_para.h file and thus incorrectly installs linux/kvm_para.h as well. Most arches actually have an asm/kvm_para.h, so this wasn't detectable in those." * 'uapi-prep' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers: UAPI: Fix conditional header installation handling (notably kvm_para.h on m68k) c6x: remove c6x signal.h UAPI: Split compound conditionals containing __KERNEL__ in Arm64 UAPI: Fix the guards on various asm/unistd.h files c6x: make dsk6455 the default config

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen Pull ADM Xen support from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: Features: * Allow a Linux guest to boot as initial domain and as normal guests on Xen on ARM (specifically ARMv7 with virtualized extensions). PV console, block and network frontend/backends are working. Bug-fixes: * Fix compile linux-next fallout. * Fix PVHVM bootup crashing. The Xen-unstable hypervisor (so will be 4.3 in a ~6 months), supports ARMv7 platforms. The goal in implementing this architecture is to exploit the hardware as much as possible. That means use as little as possible of PV operations (so no PV MMU) - and use existing PV drivers for I/Os (network, block, console, etc). This is similar to how PVHVM guests operate in X86 platform nowadays - except that on ARM there is no need for QEMU. The end result is that we share a lot of the generic Xen drivers and infrastructure. Details on how to compile/boot/etc are available at this Wiki: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_ARMv7_with_Virtualization_Extensions and this blog has links to a technical discussion/presentations on the overall architecture: http://blog.xen.org/index.php/2012/09/21/xensummit-sessions-new-pvh-virtualisation-mode-for-arm-cortex-a15arm-servers-and-x86/ * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.7-arm-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen: (21 commits) xen/xen_initial_domain: check that xen_start_info is initialized xen: mark xen_init_IRQ __init xen/Makefile: fix dom-y build arm: introduce a DTS for Xen unprivileged virtual machines MAINTAINERS: add myself as Xen ARM maintainer xen/arm: compile netback xen/arm: compile blkfront and blkback xen/arm: implement alloc/free_xenballooned_pages with alloc_pages/kfree xen/arm: receive Xen events on ARM xen/arm: initialize grant_table on ARM xen/arm: get privilege status xen/arm: introduce CONFIG_XEN on ARM xen: do not compile manage, balloon, pci, acpi, pcpu and cpu_hotplug on ARM xen/arm: Introduce xen_ulong_t for unsigned long xen/arm: Xen detection and shared_info page mapping docs: Xen ARM DT bindings xen/arm: empty implementation of grant_table arch specific functions xen/arm: sync_bitops xen/arm: page.h definitions xen/arm: hypercalls ...

2012-10-06ACPI: Add new sysfs interface to export device descriptionLance Ortiz
Add support to export the device description obtained from the ACPI _STR method, if one exists for a device, to user-space via a sysfs interface. This new interface provides a standard and platform neutral way for users to obtain the description text stored in the ACPI _STR method. If no _STR method exists for the device, no sysfs 'description' file will be created. The 'description' file will be located in the /sys/devices/ directory using the device's path. /sys/device/<bus>/<bridge path>/<device path>.../firmware_node/description Example: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00.07.0/0000:0e:00.0/firmware_node/description It can also be located using the ACPI device path, for example: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/ACPI0004:00/PNP0A08:00/device:13/device:15/description /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/ACPI0004:00/ACPI0004:01/ACPI0007:02/description Execute the 'cat' command on the 'description' file to obtain the description string for that device. This patch also includes documentation describing how the new sysfs interface works Changes from v1-v2 based on comments by Len Brown and Fengguang Wu * Removed output "No Description" and leaving a NULL attribute if the _STR method failed to evaluate. * In acpi_device_remove_files() removed the redundent check of dev->pnp.str_obj before calling free. This check triggered a message from smatch. Signed-off-by: Lance Ortiz <lance.ortiz@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
